Pete Bentham’s Free Rock ‘n’ Roll nights are simply the gift that never stops giving. I love this venue… It’s Sound. It’s also where I saw Cut for the first time this time last year, and I knew then it wouldn’t be the last… Neither would tonight…

I’ve always believed that it is vital to review and support up and coming talent whenever I can. Tonight at The Skerries in Bangor, North Wales I witnessed four solid reasons why I continue to do it. I also took the opportunity at this gig of chatting with Mike & Andy from Crapsons. The filmed interview with be published shortly in it’s entirety.
I was really impressed with The Skerries. A small traditional pub at the bottom of the longest high street in Britain (one mile top to bottom). The back room where the bands perform is large enough to hold a decent crowd and project great sound, but also small enough for the place to fill up quickly.
As the song goes… Oh what a night…
Caernarfon is like the film I Am Legend, nothing happens during daylight hours, but once the sun goes down, all the zombies emerge, hungry for flesh (or in this case alcohol and powders)…
Having watched Crapsons live at Liverpool Calling Festival over the weekend and learning that they and their friends also organised the whole event, it was quite fitting to repeat their recent live session. The session, like the gig was frantic and furious, which is just how we like it. (bandcamp)

Only the brave and the stupid actually promote gigs… So to promote an entire festival you’d have to be braveheart and completely insane… The likes of Andy Gilbert, Krystian Yeah Buddy and company are absolutely bonkers… May their insanity continue…
